### Filling in passwords from browser

Gopass allows filling in passwords in browsers leveraging a browser plugin like [gopass bridge](https://github.com/martinhoefling/gopassbridge).
The browser plugin communicates with gopass via json messages. To allow the plugin to start gopass, a [native messaging manifest](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Native_messaging) must be installed for each browser.
Chrome, chromium and firefox are supported, currently. Further a wrapper must be installed to setup gpg-agent and execute `gopass jsonapi listen`.

```bash
# Asks all questions concerning browser and setup
gopass jsonapi configure

# Do not copy / install any files, just print their location and content
gopass jsonapi configure --print-only

# Specify browser and wrapper path
gopass jsonapi configure --browser chrome --path /home/user/.local/

```
